1/2
When in doubt, play to your strenghts. A portal back in time (and a doomed love affair therein), strange environs causing Spock to revert to emotions, a title cribbed from Shakespeare. That’s really the success of any good Trek episode. I like that there is a librarian called Mr. Atoz (A to Z – dig?) This episode is by the numbers but chock full o’ juicy what ifs.
You must be kidding. AOY is one of the top-five Star Trek episodes of all time.
My favorite TOS episode.
This episode was dumb but strangely entertaining too. That is the trouble with tos trek. Even the dumb ones somehow get your attention because the great ones were so great. They, in effect, support the bad ones somewhat. You can see the bad ones are bad but you still love the good ones. And therefore the bad ones seem not too bad unless looked at closely and you really do not want to look too closely. Silly but true.
